Summary
Dengeki Hime (電撃姫) was a Japanese magazine published monthly by ASCII Media Works (formerly MediaWorks) publishing information mainly on adult visual novels. The magazine started as a special issue of the now discontinued Dengeki Oh in 1997, and in 2001 it became its own entity. Originally, it held information on boys love series but eventually shifted to adult visual novels when Dengeki Girl's Style began hosting the former content. Its sister magazine is Dengeki G's Magazine which publishes similar information of visual novels. Starting in the April 2007 issue, the title of the magazine was written in all capitals.
